Chester is a public boat ramp in Queen Anne's County, Maryland, on Chester River. From here SeaStatus scores 5 waters: Chester River to Queenstown MD, Eastern Bay, Chester River (Segment 2 of 2), Chesapeake Bay from Pooles Island to Sandy Point MD and Chesapeake Bay from Sandy Point to North Beach MD.
The main water here is Chester River to Queenstown MD. Rivers are scored mostly on wind and current. Wave height is not part of the score, because a river has no real sea state; visibility and comfort make up the rest. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 44063, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8572792, Kent Island Narrows, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 4.8 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
